My AGS also delivered last week, i had similar observations initially but now i feel it reduced and quite easy in shifting gears. Car is 300 KM driven only but i guess its psychological as i am now used to this new AGS transmission.
My overall conclusion is that its not about transmission but its about how we drive it coz i have civic x and when i initially drove the Alto i felt that if there is any issue with the AGS but the issue was actually with the way i was handling it.
Consider it manual transmission and let AGS change manual gears for you
